Clear Warning

Stan was one of those insensitive blokes, 
who gorged on Jerusalem artichokes,
when gas formed in his gut,
he thanked God for a butt...
now the entire USA gags and chokes.

Kp Nunez Date: 6/28/2015 10:50:00 AM lol! Just what kind of gas is produced by Jerusalem artichokes? Nice laughs, Lindsay! Login to Reply Lindsay Laurie Date: 7/5/2015 11:27:00 PM G'day Kim...

Paul Callus Date: 6/27/2015 1:59:00 PM Both limerick and artichokes are delightful, Lindsay! All in moderation says the sage poet:) // paul Login to Reply Lindsay Laurie Date: 7/5/2015 11:23:00 PM G'day Paul... when you say artichokes are delightful, I agree. I do enjoy both; the Mediterranean thistle and the American sunflower tuber. It's the tuber that causes problems - thank you Paul - Lindsay
